Kevin,

I think the meds are working awright! I think you are correct the more loft the more the face looks left. I may be snarling up the wrong tree but I think the popular putter grips of the day promote covering the plane line as opposed to tracing. If the grip is properly attached then thumbs down the flat portion of the grip serves as basic guide to what "square" is. To me this suggests only two options 1)covering w/vertical hinge (eliminating the pesky problem of ball placement) 2)tracing with any hinge action with ball precisily at lowpoint...for a straightaway roll. Am I embarrassing myself here? So what I am saying is the popular putter grips are not friendly to any putt where the ball is placed up plane from low point?

I think if you feel the problem is with the grip, you have a problem with how you are placing your hands on the putter. I would experiment with some different grip components until you get comfortable. Remember the grip Runyan and Phil Rogers teach? Yoda spoke to us about that one, give it a whirl. Get your hands on the freaking thing comfortably, and knock it into the hole with either shoulders, arms, or hands. Just don't mix any of the 3!
